Jason is the sibling you go to if you need your bones taken out and power washed.
In a family full of people veering towards disability, at a speed superman is envious of, this is a highly coveted skill.
Mans has back cracking down to a science nay! An Art.
Dick, climbing through Jason's window: "hey can you take out my spine and give it a shake 🥺🥺🥺"
Jason, looking extremely put up on but already spreading his arms to crack Dick's back: "yeah, get your flexy ass over here 🙄🙄🙄"

[PART ONE] - PART TWO (you are here!)
“Sorry,” Skulker bites out as soon as Plasmius loosens his grip. “I only meant, once I find it, it’s going to take a while before he’s back to normal.” - (Our Pupils Grope for the Shape of What We Know, CH 3.)
second part of the comic, original fic by @ectopal here on tumblr and ao3!
OKAY SO LET’S CHAT!! welcome to cap’n ney’s art context corner!
the layout for each page was something that really gave me a headache, and tbh i would probably have no idea how to assess if they make any sense. but my favorite page, by FAR, is in part one where vlad is yelling at skulker (“i gave you a job…”) etc. the idea was depending on how angry someone was, they’d break through the panelling more and more.
this. took. forever.
well not forever, only like. four days. but that’s because this had such a fucking grip on my brain that i genuinely dedicated almost all my spare time to it. i did a couple other doodles (that you probably saw yesterday) but man. i haven’t drawn this much in one sitting in a while.
this whole thing gave me so much more respect for the new graphic novel that’s coming out btw, because holy shit this was draining. i can’t imagine doing literally almost 200 pages.
thank you so much again to ectopal for sharing your fantastic works with us. and thank you to all of you for indulging my nonsense o7
i’d say i’m sorry for the spam, but really this will probably happen again someday. can’t help it if fics blow my mind :’D

I think when a lot of queer people who aspire to marriage, and remember (rightly) fighting for the right to marriage, see queer people who don't want marriage, talking about not entering or even reforming or abolishing marriage, there's an assumption I can't fault anyone for having — because it's an assumption borne of trauma — that queers who aren't big on marriage are inadvertently or purposefully going to either foolishly deprive themselves of rights, or dangerously deprive everyone of the rights associated with marriage. But that's markedly untrue. We only want rights to stop being locked behind marriages. We want an end to discrimination against the unmarried.
We want a multitude of rights for polyamorous relationships. We want ways to fully recognize and extend rights to non-romantic and/or non-sexual unions, including but not limited to QPRs, in a setting distinct from the one that (modern) history has spent so long conflating with romance and sex in a way that makes many of us so deeply uncomfortable. And many of us are also disabled queers who are furious about marriage stripping the disabled of all benefits.
We want options to co-parent, and retain legal rights to see children, that extends to more than two people, and by necessity, to non-biological parents (which, by the way, hasn't always automatically followed from same-gender marriage equality even in places where said equality nominally exists. Our struggles are not as different as you think). We would like for (found or biological) family members and siblings to co-habitate as equal members of a household, perhaps even with pooled finances or engaging in aforementioned co-parenting, without anyone trying to fit the dynamic into a "marriage-shaped box" and assume it's incestuous. We want options to leave either marriages, or alternative agreements, that are less onerous than divorce proceedings have historically been.
I can't speak for every person who does not want to marry, but on average, spurning marriage is not a choice we make lightly. We are deeply, deeply aware of the benefits that only marriage can currently provide. And we do not take that information lightly. We demand better.
Now, talking about the benefits of marriage in respective countries' current legal frameworks, so that all people can make choices from an informed place, is all well and good — but is not an appropriate response to someone saying they are uncomfortable with marriage. There are people for whom entering a marriage, with all its associated norms, expectations, and baggage, would feel like a betrayal of one's self and authenticity that would shake them to their core — and every day, I struggle to unpack if I'm one of them or not. If I want to marry for tax benefits, or not. If that's worth the risk of losing disability benefits, in the (very plausible) possibility that I have to apply for them later in life. If that's worth the emotional burden of having to explain over and over, to both well-meaning and deeply conservative family members, that this relationship is not one of romance or sex. (Because, god, trying just to explain aromanticism or asexuality in a world that broadly thinks they're "fake" is emotional labor enough.)
Marriage is a fundamental alteration to who I am, to what rights an ableist government grants me, and to how I am perceived. I don't criticize the institution just because I enjoy a "free spirit" aesthetic or think the wedding industry is annoying, or whatever.

Do you have a preference for you the younger or older twin is?
Nope! Well, more specifically, I do have a preference and that is simply to not know. The difference is so minuscule that it’s way more interesting to me to have it deliberately unclear.

OH YEA BTW SINCE THE VAS DECIDED TO GET EXTRA SILLY FOR MGAFS:
Earth's VA clarified (very passionately and consistently) that Earth DID NOT DIE from Bloodmoon that was a MISTAKE from Sun or Moon's VA (I can't remember which 😭), technically the old body died because it was broken beyond repair but she herself was perfectly okay!! So both her and Sun are untouched by the family theme of dying. She was just badly injured!
She also said she wants it to be canon that Earth can do a backflip! :]
KC's VA touched on the question of "why didn't it fight back against Bloodmoon?" and it was simply because it didn't care to 💔

Teru feels like the kind of kid that watched National Geographic as a kid because he needed the TV to raise him instead of his parents and it seemed more "mature" than kamen rider
So he's like, mildly knowledgeable in random animal facts but super confident in everything he says
That's how he ends up proclaiming with utmost certainty that there was a monkey at the hot springs and keeps getting bugs wrong in the summer omake, keep at it king you'll get them right one day❗️❗️

thinking about some name stuff. I've always been kinda indifferent/detached/mildly unhappy with my irl name. like, I don't outright hate it, but it's just....meh. and I've been looking for one for a hot minute now but nothing's really properly stuck with me.
I've considered using my online monikers before - Color, Storm, but they just don't feel quite right either. I guess Color still technically works, but Storm is solidly my Fursona Name. which is me but also not, because of course I've got to make things complicated
recently though I've kinda been considering Valkyrie/Valerie as options? Valkyrie in more online spaces, Valerie as the more normal/offline version... would probably end up shortening it to Val in most instances anyway, because I've always wanted a name that could be shortened into different nicknames. Val, Kyrie, Kiki....idk it just seems like it'd be fun to try out
